People who are physically reliant to drugs or alcohol and want help will initially go through detox before getting other treatment services in drug rehab. Detox is basically the procedure of the drug being eliminated from one's system, which is frequently uncomfortable and may carry risks if not performed in a setting which can supply appropriate support and medical intervention as necessary. Detoxification services are provided at either a professional drug or alcohol detoxification facility or a drug rehab facility which can appropriately oversee and provide medical supervision for people who are just coming off of drugs. Detoxification services frequently include insuring the individual is as comfortable as possible while detoxing and going through drug or alcohol withdrawal, offering proper nutrition and making certain the individual is getting proper rest, and supplying supplements and medicine as wanted to make the detox process as smooth and safe as possible. The person in detoxification will sometimes be encouraged to take part in some sort of physical activity such as walking, yoga, etc. At a drug detoxification facility or drug rehabilitation facility which can offer detox services, the person will have detox staff at their disposal around the clock to guarantee that any difficulties are resolved as rapidly and safely as possible.
